{"product_id":"9780852441770","title":"St Mary Magdalen in Provence: The Coffin and the Cave","description":"This book concentrates on the venerable tradition that links Mary to the heart of la Provence Verte. To the cave in the massif of Saint-Baume where she is said to have ended her days as a hermit, after helping evangelise the area; and to the coffin in the nearby town of Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume which is said to contain her bones. Places which for centuries have been a magnet for pilgrims and which remain centres of pilgrimage and spiritual activity today. Provence and Mary Magdalen-two endlessly fascinating subjects. Yet the tradition linking the two is hardly known in the English-speaking world. Here-in a quest both spiritual and historical-is its first full-length examination. Could there be any truth in it?\u003cbr\u003eMichael Donley has worked as a Lecturer in English in several countries, and has previously published on French literature and music criticism.","brand":"Gracewing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49859390636272,"sku":"9780852441770","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780852441770","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
